alpha Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 That psuedocorynactis I had hitchhike into my tank........ HE ATE ONE OF MY NASSARIUS SNAILS!!!!!! Fish eating anemone? Uh-yeah. Link to comment
Uploadead Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Of course fish are eaten by anemones, thats their natural diet, but in captivity, most fish aren't so stupid and people feed their anemone raw. Not being an idiot, but what is a pseudocorynactis? I've never heard of anemones eating snails, but I know a guy with a Dahlia anemone that engulfed his HUGE chocolate chip starfish and hosted a cleaner shrimp. Link to comment

Do you guys think he can digest the shell and all? An Adult: Link to comment
Uploadead Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 There was a thread about this yesterday, ill see if I can dig it up for you. I think he will eject the shell. Edit:Here it is: http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=110141 Link to comment

alpha Posted February 4, 2007 Author Share Posted February 4, 2007 Update: He spit the shell out. If I feed him on a regular basis, will he leave other inhabitants alone? I want to get a clown! The clown will probably try to form a relationship. Would he be eaten? Link to comment
clifford513 Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Not an anemone that forms a symbiotic relationship with a clown. I would think that it would definitely eat a clown. Link to comment
Uploadead Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 You may want to get rid of it (I know I would, im attatched to all of my animals) . Maybe sell it to a good minded LFS which wont sell it as a clownfish's anemone. Link to comment
